It does actually because at one point the baby can't live without your body i.e. it's your choice because the mother and baby are stuck in a symbiotic relationship. At 39 weeks, per your example, if you didn't want it to live inside your body anymore it could very well survive outside of it so there is now an alternative to it being in your body. Now this is all hypothetical because I doubt many doctors or insurance companies would go for it, but that is really why the "choice" changes.
At 39 weeks if we had premature delivers instead of calling them abortions would people still throw a fit?
